Researcher | Social Scientist

I am researcher and social scientist with more than 7 years of experience storytelling with data. I love leveraging my quantitative and qualitative research toolkit to understand data, and clearly communicate the story that data is telling to broad audiences. I especially love when the data I am working with as real-world impact. To date, my work has encompassed broad range of impact, including understanding individual differences in health outcomes,improving patient care, and patterns in the media kids consume.

I have expertise in a variety of research skills, including surveys, interviewing, diaries, text mining, content-coding, and structural equation modeling. I use R, Python, SAS, and SPSS to accomplish data analysis and visualization. I am also a skilled communicator, and have translated data into technical articles, public interest blogs, non-profit reports, and national and international talks.

When I’m not at work, I can be found playing in local soccer, basketball, and kickball leagues. I’m also slowly working on developing a green thumb and baking through every Claire Saffitz dessert recipe.
